Antioxidants may help neutralize free radicals which are unstable molecules linked to the development of a number of diseases including division of mutated cells, cardiovascular disease and other age-related conditions such as Alzheimer's Disease.

According to the USDA database of the antioxidant activity of selected foods (ORAC values), blueberries rank among the highest on a per serving basis. Polyphenols give blueberries their blue hue and are the major contributors to the antioxidant activity of the fruit.

Blueberry, like its relative the cranberry, possibly helps prevent bladder infections by stopping bacteria from attaching to the walls of the bladder. Blueberry fruit is also a source of fiber which could support healthy digestive function. In animal laboratory studies, researchers found that blueberries may support the brain from oxidative stress and may reduce the effects of age related conditions. Researchers also found that diets rich in blueberries may significantly improve both learning capacity and motor skills of aging animals, making them mentally equivalent to much younger ones.

Phytonutrients called anthocyanins in blueberries may support the body's ability to neutralize free radical damage to the collagen matrix of cells and tissues that can lead to a multitude of conditions. Anthocyanins, the blue-red pigments found in blueberries, may also impact the integrity of structures in the veins and the entire vascular system.

Anthocyanins have been shown to possibly support the effects of vitamin C, support capillary health and possibly stabilize the collagen matrix. Anthocyanins may work their protective magic by possibly preventing free-radical damage; inhibiting enzymes from cleaving the collagen matrix; and directly cross-linking with collagen fibers to form a stabilized collagen matrix.
